Pursuant to the Corporations Act, the Directors of a public company that is required to hold an Annual General Meeting must table the financial statements and reports of the Company for the previous year before shareholders at that Annual General Meeting.

Shareholders have been provided with all relevant information concerning the Company's 2018 Accounts for the year ended 30 June 2018. A copy of this report has been forwarded or made available to each shareholder and may also be found online at www.quantumgraphite.com and as announced to ASX. A copy of the 2018 Annual Financial Report will also be tabled at the Meeting.

Shareholders should note that the sole purpose of tabling the 2018 Annual Financial Report at the Annual General Meeting is to provide shareholders with the opportunity to ask questions or discuss matters arising from the financial statements at the Meeting. It is not the purpose of the meeting that the financial statements be accepted, rejected or modified in any way. Further, as it is not required by the Corporations Act, no resolution to adopt the Company's financial statements will be put to shareholders at the Meeting.

Shareholders will be allowed a reasonable opportunity to ask questions about, or make comments on, the management of the Company.

It is proposed that the Company's auditors will be present at the meeting. Shareholders present at the meeting will be allowed a reasonable opportunity to ask the Chairman of the Company questions about the management of the Company or ask the auditors questions relevant to:

Written questions to the Chairman about the management of the Company, or to the Company's auditor about the above matters, may be submitted by no later than 5 business days before the meeting to the Company Secretary at the Company's registered office.

2.2. Resolution 1: Remuneration Report 2018

Section 300A of the Corporations Act requires that the Directors' Report must contain a Remuneration Report containing prescribed information about the Board's policy for determining the nature and amount of the remuneration of Directors and senior management. The Remuneration Report must also explain the

relationship between the remuneration policy of the Board and the Company's performance. The Remuneration Report is set out in the 2018 Annual Financial Report on page 10.

The Corporations Act requires that the Remuneration Report be submitted to shareholders for adoption by a non-binding resolution.

The Remuneration Report contains information regarding such matters (among others) as:

  • (i) the Board's policy for determining the nature and levels of remuneration of the Company's senior management personnel;
  • (ii) the relationship between the Board's remuneration policy and the Company's performance;
  • (iii) prescribed information regarding the remuneration paid to each member of the Company's key management personnel, including the amount of the remuneration paid to those personnel; and
  • (iv) where any element of the remuneration of a member of the key management personnel depended on the satisfaction of a performance condition, a summary of that performance condition and an explanation of why it was adopted in relation to the relevant personnel.

Section 250R(2) of the Corporations Act provides that the Company is required to put the Remuneration Report to the vote of shareholders.

Section 250R(3) of the Corporations Act provides that this resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors of the Company. Of itself, a failure of shareholders pass this will not require the Directors to alter any of the arrangements described in the respective Remuneration Report.

However, sections, 250U and 250Y, among others of the Corporations Act, give shareholders the opportunity to remove the Board if the Remuneration Report receives a no vote of 25% or more at two consecutive annual general meetings (Two Strikes Rule).

Under the Two Strikes Rule, where a resolution on the Remuneration Report receives a no vote of 25% or more at two consecutive annual general meetings, the Company will be required to put to shareholders at the second annual general meeting a resolution on whether another meeting should be held (within 90 days) at which all Directors (other than the Managing Director) who were in office at the date of approval of the applicable Director's Report must stand for re-election (Spill Resolution).

In addition, if comments are made on the Remuneration Report at the AGM, the Company's remuneration report in respect of the following financial year will be required to include an explanation of the Board's proposed action in response to those comments or, if no action is proposed, the reasons why.

The Chairman will allow a reasonable opportunity for shareholders as a whole to ask about, or make comments on, the Remuneration Reports.

The Chairman will cast all available proxies in favour of this resolution. Shareholders may also choose to direct the Chairman to vote against this resolution or to abstain from voting.

2.6. Resolutions 3(a), (b), (c), (d), (e): Approval of Issue of Shares to Directors

This resolution of the Notice seeks shareholder approval for the purpose of Listing Rule 10.11 and all other purposes for the issue of shares to Directors. This issue is proposed in lieu of the cash payment of quarterly directors' fees as set out in the table below.

As a result of the holding of the 2017 Annual General Meeting (2017 AGM) on 22 June 2018, the period covered by these resolutions also includes a period (Common Period) covered by substantially similar resolutions (resolutions 3(a) to 3(f) inclusive or the 2017 Resolutions) passed at the 2017 AGM. To the extent of the Common Period, directors shall only be entitled to a single issue of shares pursuant to the resolutions 3(a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) inclusive being considered at this AGM.

Further, any issue of Shares to each of the Directors in accordance with the Table below is conditional upon any applicable ASX waiver which may be required pursuant to Listing Rules 10.13.3 and 10.13.5. In the event that the applicable ASX waiver is not granted, the Directors will not be entitled to any issue of shares pursuant to resolutions 3(a) to 3(e) inclusive.

The deemed issue price of the Shares is the higher of $0.001 (0.1 cents) or the monthly VWAP for the calendar month immediately preceding the month of issue of Shares according to the formula:

Total Shares Issued to each Director = QR / SP Where: QR = Quarterly remuneration for each director; and SP = The lesser of VWAP for QGL shares for prior month OR 0.1 cents

For example, for the issue of shares for the quarter commencing 1 June 2019, the shares shall be issued on 1 June 2019 and the relevant calendar month for the purposes of the monthly VWAP calculation is May 2019.

The table below has been prepared on the basis of the minimum issue price of $0.001 (0.1 cents) and various issue prices ranging from 0.15 cents per share to 0.30 cents per share. Each table sets out the maximum dilution that will arise on a quarterly and annual basis. At the minimum issue price of 0.1 cents the maximum dilution to shareholders is approximately 4.1%. At the higher issue price indicated below (ie. 0.3 cents per share) the maximum dilution to shareholders is approximately 0.68%.

Subject to satisfaction of the conditions outlined above, the Company shall issue the Shares to the Directors, quarterly in advance on 1 January 2019, 1 April 2019, 1 July 2019 and 1 October 2019.

It is the view of Directors that the proposed issue of shares pursuant to these resolutions fall within the exception under section 211 of the Corporations Act (reasonable remuneration) given the circumstances of the Company and the position held by the Directors. Accordingly, shareholder approval is not being sought under section 208 of the Corporations Act, although shareholder approval must be obtained pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.11.

A Voting exclusion statement for each of the resolutions are set out in the Notice of Meeting. The Chairman intends to vote available undirected proxies in favour of all resolutions.
